Financial aid and proof of citizenship
Hey all,
Recently, my passport expired. When I was filling out the fafsa, I noticed I got a warning sign next to the “us citizen” question under the demographics section, I shrugged it off however because the form was processed and I don’t know, I figured I’d receive some other notification regarding that. I haven’t received any financial aid yet and perhaps I’m being impatient because others haven’t, but I’m scared that if the us citizenship thing IS the thing holding me back from getting financial aid, would the financial aid office accept an expired passport? I wasn’t born here, so that’s truly my only proof of citizenship. And I don’t think my passport would arrive before the tuition payment deadline. Thoughts?
